This review will highlight the development of mAbs targeting PS, TIM-3 and the TAM receptors. Video Abstract.BACKGROUND Extensive myocardial calcification has a low incidence rate, but when the patients do have extensive myocardial cases, the prognosis is usually poor.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/GDC-0449.html  Several sepsis-related extensive myocardial calcification cases have been reported, but there are cases of biventricular calcifications that are caused by multiple cases besides bacteremia and the treatment for it has a low percentage of success. CASE PRESENTATION A 9 year old girl had an extensive biventricular calcification which is caused by multiple factors including multiple organ failure (heart, lung, liver, and kidney), aseptic cardiomyopathy, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, pulmonary hemorrhage, viral encephalitis. In this case study, the massive myocardial calcification present in the patient was classified as dystrophic. After the patient was transferred to the Intensive care unit, a series of rescue treatments such as anti-inflammatory factor storm were implemented to protect the organs. In the end, the patient was rescued from the rescue treatment procedure. After 18 months of follow-up, it was observed that the patient's heart function returned to normal and it was observed that there was no change in myocardial calcification in the patient. CONCLUSION In this case study, it showcased a case of the diffused biventricular calcification that caused by multiple factors. Furthermore, the precise role of calcification on cardiac function was largely unknown and there has to be further follow-up observation on the patient.BACKGROUND Although vaccination coverage in Eritrea has improved in recent years, some children are still missing out, and it's important to identify risk factors for lower coverage in order to target campaigns and interventions. The objective of this study was to assess (1) the impact of maternal education on full immunization of children aged 12-23 months, and (2) whether the association was confounded or modified by other factors. METHODS This study was a secondary data analysis of the Eritrean Population and Health Survey 2010 (EPHS 2010). In this analysis 1323 mothers of children aged 12-23 months were included. The outcome of the study was full immunization, defined as receiving all the WHO recommended basic vaccines one dose of Bacillus Calmette-Gué rin (BCG), three doses of diphtheria-pertussis-tetanus(DPT), three doses of polio, and one dose of measles vaccine. The primary exposure was maternal education. Data on immunization coverage came from vaccination cards and from mothers' or caretakers' verbashould target strategies to enhance full immunization among children of mothers with no education.BACKGROUND The world population is expected to increase greatly this century, aggravating current problems related to climate, health, food security, biodiversity, energy and other vital resources. Population growth depends strongly on total fertility rate (TFR), but the relative importance of factors that influence fertility needs more study. METHODS We analyze recent levels of fertility in relation to five factors education (mean school years for females), economy (Gross Domestic Product, GDP, per capita), religiosity, contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR), and strength of family planning programs. We compare six global regions E Europe, W Europe and related countries, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Arab States, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia. In total, 141 countries are included in the analysis. We estimate the strength of relationships between TFR and the five factors by correlation or regression and present the results graphically. RESULTS In decreasing order of strength, fertility (TFR) correlates negatively with education, CPR, and GDP per capita, and positively with religiosity. Europe deviates from other regions in several ways, e.g. TFR increases with education and decreases with religiosity in W Europe. TFR decreases with increasing strength of family planning programs in three regions, but only weakly so in a fourth, Sub-Saharan Africa (the two European regions lacked such programs). Most factors correlated with TFR are also correlated with each other. In particular, education correlates positively with GDP per capita but negatively with religiosity, which is also negatively related to contraception and GDP per capita. CONCLUSIONS These results help identify factors of likely importance for TFR in global regions and countries. More work is needed to establish causality and relative importance of the factors. Our novel quantitative analysis of TFR suggests that religiosity may counteract the ongoing decline of fertility in some regions and countries.BACKGROUND The role of Surgical Care Practitioner (SCP) was first introduced by the NHS in the field of cardiothoracic surgery more than two decades ago to overcome the chronic shortage of junior doctors, and subsequently evolved into other surgical specialties. This review aims to provide evidence on the current situation of SCPs' clinical outcomes within their surgical extended role, with an emphasis on the cardiothoracic surgical field. METHOD A systematic search of PubMed, Scopus, Embase via Ovid, Web of Science and TRIP was conducted with no time restriction to explore the evidence on SCPs. All included articles were reviewed by three researchers using the selection criteria, and a narrative synthesis was undertaken. FINDINGS Ten out of the 38 studies identified were selected for inclusion. Only one study specifically investigated cardiothoracic SCPs. Three themes were identified (1) clinical outcomes (six studies), (2) workforce impact (two studies) and (3) colleagues' opinions (two studies). All studies demonstrated that SCPs provided safe practice, added value and were of benefit to workforce environments and surgical teams. CONCLUSION Although the current literature provides assurances that the presence of SCPs within surgical teams is beneficial in terms of their clinical outcomes, their impact on the workforce and colleagues' opinions, a significant gap was identified around the SCPs' role within their surgical extended role, specifically in cardiac surgery. Thus, prospective clinical research is required to evaluate SCPs' clinical impact.
